Bathroom walls can do more than provide a backdrop for the vanity and mirror. White shiplap, beadboard, vertical paneling, herringbone tile, and white hexagon tile each bring a distinct texture, while wallpaper and limewashed brick add pattern and character. These ideas show how wall treatments can shape the entire room.
